The EMSA events are a lot of fun. They are open to all makes of boats, and are a very friendly group of people. I went to my first race last March after only have been sailing for less than a year. They were extremely helpful and patient with me haha. We would love to see more cats attend the events. Spring Fever is a big event, but not limited to vets. I sailed it last year as my 3rd ever regatta. There were close to 90 cats there I think! They have a Yahoo group you can join to get updates and find info you need, It's called catamaran crazy. Hope to see some new faces this year...

Spring fever had a big H16 class last year and it's a three day race Friday-sunday. Cat vest on lake norman(Charlotte) had a small 16 fleet, and the racers in the outer banks and Va beach should have a 16 showing. I go to a lot of the EMSA events and I'm on a NACRA 500 which is similar to a H16. There's usually someone there I can race with whether it's a H18 or 16's. The group is mostly consisted of F16's F18's and A Cats though...

Btw I'd like to catch up with you guys in charleston sometime. I went in late September and had a blat in the harbor, saw no other cats though. Thought I put in where I've seen posted that y'all do out by Ft. Moultrie

i think i going to try to make it to Spring fever and definitely Midwinters in Daytona Beach.

Strange you didn't see any of us out there. there is usually at least one of us that make it out every weekend during the summer. At least you found our launching spot. its usually a pretty sweet spot except, for all of the bricks and rubble coming out of the eroding sandunes.
